Synopsis "El Aire que me Falta: História de uma Curta Infância e de uma Longa Depressao (Literatura Random House) (in Spanish)"

Un testimonio valiente y honesto sobre la lucha contra la tristeza, la melancolía, la angustia y el miedo. Sobre cómo podemos quedarnos sin aire y volver a respirar. Es en la cima de una montaña de los Alpes donde una angustia inexplicable, casi irracional, se apodera de la respiración de Luiz Schwarcz, bloqueando su garganta en el momento en que más necesitaba el aire. En ese preciso instante nace la decisión de escribir este libro, El aire que me falta, que engloba el proyecto que el autor había alimentado durante años: escribir la historia de su padre, de su familia, que lo abandonó todo para escapar del terror nazi, y cuyo peso ha ido cargando Schwarcz toda su vida. En estas memorias, armadas sobre una estructura en espiral, metáfora perfecta para representar las vueltas que damos alrededor de nuestros traumas, el autor alterna recuerdos para construir un sensible y detallado relato sobre cómo la depresión y los traumas, propios y heredados, pueden dejar sin aliento a cualquiera y seguir latentes en existencias marcadas aparentemente por el éxito. Cómo podemos quedarnos sin aire y volver a respirar. «Leemos El aire que me falta con taquicardia, en una empatía literaria que cada vez es más singular en estos tiempos de simulacros posmodernos. --Brazil Journal ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A brave and honest testimony about a constant fight against sadness, melancholy, anguish, and fear. About how we can run out of air and then breathe again. It is at the top of a mountain in the Alps that an inexplicable, almost irrational, anguish takes hold of Luiz Schwarcz's breathing, blocking his throat when he most needed air. At that precise moment, he made the decision to write this book. The Lack of Air is the project that the author had nurtured for years: to write his father's story, his family's story, who abandoned everything to escape Nazi terror and whose weight of it all Schwarcz has been carrying on his shoulders all his life. In these memoirs, put together on a spiral structure, a perfect metaphor to represent the turns we take around our traumas, the author uses his memories to build a sensitive and detailed story about how depression and traumas, our own and inherited ones, can leave anyone breathless and remain dormant in incidences marked by success. How can we run out of air and be able to breathe again?
